Stopped by for a quick happy hour around 6 pm. You can book the waiting list on their website ! Didn't have to wait too long (under 10 mins). Came here for the 25c wings on Wednesdays. Such a good deal! Service was nice. Our waitress frequently checked in on us. Wings come in a bowl of 6 so it’s $1.25 for each order. Lychee-Tini was sweet and not too strong. Poke nachos was an odd flavor pairing. Individually it's complements would work well together. They have different happy hour promotions each day. Fun spot with friends or family.

The atmosphere was nice. The dishes and the drinks were pretty interesting. It’s more like Asian fusion. The Ube Pina Colada drink was perfect for summer.

Loved the lychee drink I ended up getting and would recommend it, but I would be wary of the Thai milk tea as it is strong if you are not used to these kinds of drinks 🍹 🍺 🍷

Overall the food was really good! Favorites of mine were the nachos and the mac and cheese. Not impressed by the loco moco and the bathrooms could definitely be better maintained. Good for groups (it seems like it was mostly large parties plus a private party) but our reservation was at 6:30 and the food started arriving at the table at 6:30 ON THE DOT. Less than half of our party was there at the table. It’s nice that they’re timely but that’s super weird to me.

Came here after work with a friend for their happy hour. I wanted to try their taro drink, but they removed it from the menu by the time we went. Inside was really big with two levels and tables set up outside as well. It was already pretty busy at 5pm (I believe a private event was happening), but we were seated indoors promptly. We were impressed by their list of drinks and ordered the nachos, kimchi noodles, tacos, and chicken wings. We tried the mai tai and the drink was so strong. My friend thought it was really good, but it was a bit too strong for my taste. The kalua pig tacos were dry and would pass on them. The kimchi noodles were my favorite and the beef quality was really good. The nachos and chicken wings were pretty good too, but nothing spectacular. Overall, I thought this place is a good place to meet with friends and have some drinks, especially since this place would be good for groups.

We came here on a random Tuesday for the taco Tuesday deals and now we come frequently for Tuesday trivia! Always a blast and not as busy as it should be :) you can check their site/Instagram for info on when trivia happens but it's definitely a good spot for a friends hangout/date. And the food is bomb too!!!!

My meal was enjoyable. On Tuesdays, the Kabli and Kalua pig tacos were $2.50 each. The duck and shrimp ones were $3.50 a piece. With a Hawaiian meal, I usually order some sort of spam dish. Their spam musubi $5 was, let's say, adequate. I can't say their house wings $9 were spectacular. Their kitchen was a little slow on some items. The bartender was quick though. My drinks came out fast. The waiter seemed like he didn't want to be there. Who can blame him, he had a lot to do. Overall, the presentation was nice. With that said, sometimes that could be a bad thing. For example, the margarita had this black salt around the rim of the glass. It looked unique. But, the black color dye rubs off. The next thing I knew, my lips were black and so were some of my fingers. My meal was $50+ with tax and tip.

Great spot for pre kabuki film screening. Get the watermelon marg! Also, love the vibe and Hong is an incredible server - they definitely are a huge part of why the vibe of this place is so great. 10/10

They’re open for delivery and takeout, even serving alcoholic beverages on doordash! I had the duck fried rice and the duck was well cooked and a lot of fresh veggies in it. The Mac n cheese was slightly lacking in salt but super cheesy. I really loved the wings, which came as a free add on Uber eats! Order all the food!

Oh mer lawd. This place is bomb. I live nearby and have been having the alcoholic boba drinks for years. So good. The espresso martini is also 👌🏼 Came here for wing Wednesday where you can get up to 12 wings for 25 cents each with each alcoholic drink you order at your table (not at the bar). The honey siracha flavor is where it’s at. Plenty of TVs broadcasting sports. Interior is open with industrial decor and string lights so it almost feels like you’re on a patio. Lively vibe. Servers are friendly and attentive. Make rezos or get on yelp waitlist beforehand as you’ll likely have to wait for a table. Only thing that would improve this place is if they added heaters outside so there’s more seating and less waiting for a table.

We came at their happy hour. Friendly staff and servers who were very attentive (offered to move us to another when our neighboring table became obnoxiously loud). The front of the house is a little cold so it’s best to sit in the back or wear a sweater. We ordered the happy hour drinks which were delicious and reasonably priced (Mai Tai/Kona big wave) at 5$/drink. We tried their garlic fries, poke bowl (which was too salty), and sliders. Would highly recommend the sliders since they were so juicy and savory! Noticed that the Spam Musubi is on the happy hour menu but priced the same as in the regular menu.

Great food, great drinks, and great atmosphere! Service is always amazing here and you always have a place to walk around after eating since you are in Japan Town! Would highly recommend! :)

Food was good. Service can be improved, mains were out before starters. Side dishes served before the meal etc. but still a good meal.

They have taco tuesday and wings wednesday. Good location for casual dinner, and the restaurant doesn’t feel too formal. Poke was good (bowls available too)
